Foxen Straightens Out Yu to Cross a Million

Level 11 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Catching up to action on the river with a board of {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} Alex Foxen had a bet of 193,000 out in front of him and Ben Yu was in the tank. He tanked through four time extensions for nearly two and a half minutes before he finally decided on a call. Foxen showed down his {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a flopped straight and Yu just nodded and sent over the chips.

After the hand, Foxen was up over 1 million chips while Yu was left with 315,000.
